Although using flags to indicate langauges can, in certain language
communities, be taken as a political comment, and in some cases could be
seen as offensive to part of your audience.
Then there are problems with languages that are so widely spoken that it
would be difficult to choose a particular flag.
I'd just use text only.

Gaspar,
I agree - another option is to use small icons that are flags of the nations
associated with the destiny language - English uses UK/US flag (I've even
seen this as a combined flag), German the German flag, French the French
flag, etc. Most web users associate these flags with the correct language
even if the linking text is in another language or they are from another
country like Australia where the predominant language is English or
French-Canadian use the French flag.
